7 No one can redeem the life of another

or give to God a ransom for them—

7 Truly no man can ransom another,

or give to God the price of his life,

7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother,

Nor give to God a ransom for him:

7 Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death

by paying a ransom to God.

7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother,

Nor give to God a ransom for him—

7 No one can buy back the life of another.

No one can pay God for his own life,

7 None can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him,

7 No one can ever buy back another person 

or pay God a ransom for his life. 

7 Yet these cannot redeem a person

or pay his ransom to God —

7 Truly, no ransom avails for one’s life,

there is no price one can give to God for it.

7 Surely a man cannot redeem a brother.

He cannot give to God his ransom

7 No man can pay for the life of anyone else.

No one can give God what that would cost.

7 No man can by any means redeem his brother

Or give to God a ransom for him—
